Your chance to be in Watchmen

Well, almost.

To perfect the illusion of a complete parallel world which the dysfunctional superhero team inhabit, director Zack Snyder needs to create every detail of his alternate Earth.

Including TV ads. Which is where you come in. He's created a Watchmen YouTube channel and is inviting amateur filmmakers, computer geeks and card-carrying weirdoes to submit their idea of an alternate Earth TV ad that might run in the Watchmen universe.

The wisdom of the YouTube crowd will weed out the weak, and then the production team will pick the best 20 to appear in the movie, earning the makers $1000 in the process. $1000 and the undying respect of every geek on Earth that is.

Ladies, gentlemen, to your video cameras!
